Novacut Reaches Final Week for Funding

Novacut, the open source project aiming be the world’s first collaborative video editor has reached its last week on crowd funding site Kickstarter – but they’re still a long way off their goal of $25,000 in funding.

As OMG! Ubuntu! editor Akshat Jain wrote earlier this month, “OS X and Windows users always had no shortage of pro video editors but Linux never had such privilege. Novacut project aims to bring a pro video editor to Linux that is 100% free and open source right down to every single detail.”

Currently the project is sitting at just over half of their total goal ($13,180), but there’s only 5 days left for them to reach the lofty $25,000 they’ll need to make this cool project a reality and bring decent video editing to Linux. Per Kickstarter rules, if a project doesn’t reach their goal, they don’t get to keep any money at all.
